I'm sorry to say that certain people in the world are only interested in ripping off the rest of us, and there seem to be more and more of them becoming apparent in the world of 131s and Abarth as time goes on. Either that, or I'm becoming even more cynical in my old age :-\ Title: Re: The Abarth mystery Post by: djape1977 on March 25, 2009, 08:04:08 PM we're witnessing a phenomenon that caused "enron" afair some years back and current financial crisys.
people that are fishing in murky waters of www. are trying to find someone naive or desperate enough to pay those prices. in the meanwhile, you can't get cheap spares anymore and therefore those wishful prices become reality. only way for us entusiasts to survive is to help eachother.

Miro Title: Re: The Abarth mystery Post by: djape1977 on March 25, 2009, 10:10:40 PM i'm always for that option. or resonable prices.
example: i had a problem finding oil pump for 2l tc. price for new one on www was 150e cheapest. i got it from a fellow entusiast for 25e. i got a load of new and used parts for 125/132 and some for 131. anyone needing anything i have will be glad to help if i get something i need in return. for instance: i'm ofering a pair (front/rear) bumpers for 132 1800 s/gls used, in perfect condition and i need a pair for 131 in same condition or new NEW front grille for 132 gls. offers? Title: Re: The Abarth mystery Post by: miro-1980 on March 25, 2009, 10:37:29 PM That's the spirit , any others ?
